At 3:00 AM on August 26th, you arrived at the edge of the wire mesh strip in the garbage disposal area.

[A large crowd had already gathered there, carrying flashlights and various tools, their eyes gleaming with the ferocity of jackals.]

However, they remained waiting on the perimeter.

[At first, you wondered why they didn't just storm into the garbage mountain and wait for their prey to come to them.]

[The massive garbage truck arrived at four in the morning.]

It entered this Netherworld with you, but its speed was significantly slower, taking more than a day to reach the abandoned mining planet.

"It's such a coincidence, I'm starting to suspect that someone set it up."

Yun Shou paused for a moment: "By the way, were the fortunes Bai He bestowed chosen spontaneously?"

"What if, before the chosen one has been decided, my involvement and the resulting changes to the world directly cancel out the original chosen one?"

"Probably not... Xiangyang still became an immortal after the major changes in the Qingyu's power structure."

"However, it is also possible that the Qi calculations knew I would add points to Xiangyang, so they chose Xiangyang, who is more likely to become an immortal in about three thousand years, and Beichenguang."

"Because Bai He also said at that time that there was an upper limit to the luck he distributed, and the combat power of the leader of the calamity beast he designed was to limit the 'fate ability limit' of the ten chosen ones of Bei Chenguang."

"Therefore, it is not surprising that the people of Qi choose to focus on the targets that are more likely to become immortals."

"As for how those 'luck' factors determine that Xiangyang and others born at different times in the future will become immortals... that can also be explained."

"Luck is also a branch of destiny..."

"It may not be able to predict the future, but it can designate the future."

"Like the most powerful version of Zeus in Greek mythology, who determined his destiny to be born before he was even born."

"If we forcibly set a future outcome for the world, then every change in things now will become a cause for that future to happen."

"Find the cause after determining the effect!"

“I said that Bei Chenguang, who will become an immortal in the future, will appear in the Yunyang Realm. So even if his parents, Bei Chenjing, die, there will be other Bei Chen X who will name their son Bei Chenguang.”

"But just as I guessed before, luck has an upper limit. If I am determined to destroy the Yunyang Realm, then luck can only find someone else."

"But the problem is... I can't do that kind of thing!"

"Therefore, Bei Chenguang's birth was inevitable!"

"Was this... also within your expectations? Was it luck, or the destiny behind you?"

"Even if I could do it, it would only be because the luck distributed by Bai He wasn't strong enough. The Lord of Destiny is different!"

"What's the point of fighting?!"

After making some speculations, Yun Shou successfully frightened himself.

Seeing that his expression was off, Fang Zhizun, who was opposite him, asked him curiously.

"It's nothing... I'm just being a bit of a worrier (although this story doesn't exist in this world, I'm just translating his meaning into this idiom at this moment)."

Yun Shou waved his hand, but Qi Yun Dao Jun Bai He was still a mountain blocking his way. He started imagining what the Destiny Dao Lord would do, and his thoughts wandered too far.

As the transport ship's lower hatch opened and garbage was dumped downwards, you noticed some madmen excitedly rushing to the bottom of the giant ship, either throwing grappling hooks upwards or activating their jet engines to fly up.

They planned to seize this rare opportunity to infiltrate the garbage ship and, taking advantage of its return voyage, smuggle themselves into the "holy land airspace."

Then, more than a dozen machine gun barrels emerged from the hull of the giant ship, automatically identifying the crowd below and unleashing a barrage of fire.

The metal bullets formed a continuous barrage, almost like an iron curtain. Even a half-meter-thick iron plate wouldn't withstand such a hail of bullets for even a second.

A battle between iron and flesh, a clash of iron against iron.

Flesh and blood were torn apart and blasted into a cloud of blood mist that exploded in all directions—the bullets, heated by friction, evaporated their bodily fluids into red gas upon contact, which then condensed into tiny droplets of blood mist in the air.

[You see a rhinoceros-like exoskeleton warrior, equipped with six rocket-like propulsion devices on his legs, his feet spewing exaggerated flames, truly like a charging rhinoceros charging towards its target.]

[Someone with binoculars also clearly saw this scene 20 kilometers away.]

"It's the Mad Rhino King! My God, it's the Mad Rhino King!"

"That's the super-strongest of the seven biggest garbage kings in our area!"

"His exoskeleton, the 'Iron Bull Armor,' is truly imposing!"

"This is about to cause a huge upheaval in District 612. The situation will change dramatically. The death or departure of a 'Garbage King' means a large vacancy will be created in that area."

Someone murmured, "Perhaps it's the old king's feast, or perhaps it's the new king's birth."

"...Does a garbage-collecting leader have to be so passionate?"

[The garbage ship was three thousand meters above the ground. When the third propulsion unit of the Mad Rhino King detached, he, along with the massive 2,700-kilogram, three-meter-tall exoskeleton Iron Bull armor, had already soared to an altitude of two thousand meters and arrived at the bottom of the garbage ship from an angle.]

[They've also entered the machine gun's locking range.]

[The three machine guns turned around and simultaneously locked onto the person attempting to sneak into the abandoned mining planet. They opened fire at full power, the bullets from the three weapon systems cascading like a laser beam, aimed at the Mad Rhino King.]

Two fiery cones shot out from the distant sky, close together. The Mad Rhino King attempted to dodge the barrage using this method, but he faced even more machine gun fire turning around!

Bullets rained down on the Iron Bull Armor's thick, heavy armor. You could see the thick iron plating covering the Mad Rhino King being torn apart like paper, instantly riddled with holes and tattered.

A layer of pale black energy flowed through the damaged parts of the exoskeleton; this was the power of the Mad Rhino King controlling and strengthening the Iron Bull Armor, catalyzing its performance to its limit.

"As long as I can get to that place..." the Mad Rhino King murmured inside the Iron Bull Armor. His well-trained body withstood the impact of bullets striking his exoskeleton, weakening the vibrations transmitted to his flesh.

A brand new world, sweet-smelling air, a world free from garbage—it's right there!

Right there!

[Another thruster on the Rhinoceros King's leg exploded, helping him withstand the destructive force of the hail of bullets and propelling him upwards for another 500 meters!]

However, just 300 meters from his dream destination, his exoskeleton was finally worn through and opened up.

The bullet, carrying immense kinetic energy, struck his body.

"The Mad Rhino King is about to succeed!" someone shouted excitedly from the side.

You shook your head, saying that even with binoculars, those people couldn't see as clearly as you could.
